Anyone have any info on this thing? I was told it's a prototype that never went into production because of its size.

I'd like to post some pictures but this forum's ancient format won't allow me to.

And I can't post a link to the CL ad because i can't post links until i create 10 messages. Wonderful system you guys got here!

I've seen a photo of a black 10" X 8" Kustom cabinet. It is the size of a 3x15" cabinet, no ports.

is yours the one in montreal? http://montreal.craigslist.ca/msg/5476589402.html

if you count the pleats it looks to be the same size as my 3X15.

are you sure it's not a 10x8 cab supposedly at some point three experimental prototypes were made and never went into production. If it is the same size as a 3X15 cab 10" speakers wouldn't be able to fit like that.

They likely found the same issue that AMPEG did a few years latter with there short lived V9 amp for guitar, that being the issue that all of additive inductance from all of those speakers and the way that 8 or 10 of them had to be wired rolled off the top end so much that only Bass still had enough top end left to sound good!
